Mutares SE & Co. KGaA (MUX.F) has announced the submission of a binding offer to acquire Alcura France from the Alliance Healthcare Group France. Alcura France is a specialized distributor of home care solutions, focusing on medical equipment for seniors and individuals with disabilities. Their extensive product range includes over 3,000 items, from medical beds to breast pumps and wheelchairs.
Johannes Laumann, the Chief Investment Officer of Mutares, commented, "The acquisition of Alcura France would reaffirm our leadership in executing carve-outs from large corporations. The company holds a significant position in the French home care market, driven by an aging population, increasing trends towards outpatient care, and the high occupancy rates of nursing homes."
